MONTANA STATE OFFICIAL PRAISES RENSSELAER BOY.

Mr. and Mrs. Joseph J. Miller, of this city, were very much pleased Thursday evening when they received a letter from H. L. Hart, state treasurer of Montana, who had recently met their son, Jack, and wished to praise the young man to his parents. The letter follows: . “Dear Frieifds :—I am a former Iniianan, having, been raised in Laporte. A few days ago I was coming across the state on a train that had attached to it two cars of sailors from the Great Lakes Camp, going West. I spent about three hours with them. They appealed to me, as my only two boys are in the service, overseas. One young man that I particularly took a liking to told me his name was Jack Miller. I was impressed by his courtesy and gentlemanly demeanor. Thinking that perhaps you would like to hear from one who has just seen the boy that is dear to you, just how he looks and feels, I take the liberty of writing this note. His eye was clear, his complexion and he seemed to be in perfect health. Best of all he is a real “soldier” and a gentleman, and you have reason to be proud of him. Very respectfully yours,

H. L. HART.”
